Fire Wheel: Boarding Attack Moon

Nimrod knew that the Gravity Whip of the Attack Moon needed to be recharged between each attack.

During the recharging interval, the Protective Field of the Attack Moon will also fail.

The ship's Lance and other weapons are unable to destroy the Attack Moon during the recharge interval.

The only tactic to deal with the Attack Moon is to take advantage of its shield gaps and weapon recharge intervals to launch a close-range boarding assault.

After boarding, there are two tactical options.

One option is to destroy its reactor, detonate the entire Attack Moon, and eliminate any potential repercussions.

Another option is to disable its internal Warp Gate, cut off support routes, isolate it, and then clear out the Orks on top.

Nimrod decided to use the second option: an advanced Xenos creation like the Attack Moon could find buyers willing to pay a huge price.

He will handle it in the same way he dealt with the Flao battlecruisers before, finding partners to collaborate on research and development.

By adopting a collaborative development approach, we can share the development results and avoid the need to station troops on the Attack Moon.

Despite their confusion, the Eleventh Legion's warship commanders carried out the Primarch's orders and launched an assault on the Attack Moon.

The Ork fleet, which had returned with the Attack Moon, immediately headed towards the black warship.

On the flagship of the Sixth Legion, Leman Russ clenched his fists as he gazed through the observation window at the torn warships.

The Moon turned his offspring into nothingness and dust.

The Wolf King withdrew his gaze and strode back to the bridge. He saw the Eleventh Legion's warships charging at full speed toward Attack Moon.

Enoch Rashiv's eyes revealed an overwhelming sadness; those were his brothers who had fought alongside him.

He forced himself into the role of commander and looked at the holographic image.

"The Shadow of Order launched an attack on that evil Moon, and the courage they displayed once they made up their minds was admirable."

"They were using tactical evasion before, but now they've crashed right into the center of the Orks warship."

Wolf Lord saw that as the "Shadow of Order" fleet sailed toward the Attack Moon, black warships were being destroyed one after another.

According to Rashir's estimates, if the Eleventh Legion's tactical intention was to approach the Evil Moon, they would pay a heavy price, with losses exceeding the total number of warships destroyed by the Orks in the previous weeks.

"Nimrod must have discovered something, perhaps again through his sorcery."

In order to win the hunt, Leman Russ gathered intelligence on Nimrod.

He knew that Nimrod's offspring had not previously engaged in large-scale battles with the Ork, and that his understanding of the evil Moon must have been based on Psionic Energy foresight.

How should we respond?

Rashiven looked at his Wolf King and asked.

"Nimrod had warned us before that although he was going down the Error path, he was still..."

Leman Russ wanted to say "brother," but considering Nimrod's attitude towards him, he spoke instead.

"Genetic Primarch."

"Order the Legion fleet to attack the Ork warships."

The Wolf King's voice was deep, emphasizing his words.

"All warships, launch a wolf pack attack, tearing at the flanks of the Orks warships."

"Attacks on densely populated central areas are prohibited."

[I am unaware of the situation with the Evil Moon and cannot predict Nimrod's subsequent actions. The Wolfpack fleet's entry into the central area may affect the tactical maneuvers of the Shadow of Order.]

The gray warships, acting on the Primarch's orders, unleashed their fury upon the Ork warships, seeking revenge for the friendly ships that had been devoured.

The Shadow of the Throne, Nimrod stares at the disappearing friendly markings on the holographic image.

A flicker of sadness crossed his eyes, and then he was driven away.

Nimrod knew that the way to minimize the cost was to quickly defeat the Attack Moon; he had to disable the Warp Gate in the first wave of attacks.

The Primarch issued the order, "Flanking weapons cease attacking. Activate the Auger Matrix at maximum power. Scan the Moon and confirm the locations of all Warp Gate."

"Drop Pod and Stormbird, prepare!"

After relaying the order, the Primarch's Attendants reported.

"My lord, the Choir Master reports that his Astropathic Choir has eliminated the interference and restored Astropathic Communication."

"The 11th Chapter has completed its Warp voyage as ordered and is about to jump to its Anchor in the real world."

"The 5th Legion is expected to arrive in thirty-four hours from naval time."

After rapidly deducing the subsequent occupation, the Primarch genomicon's brain issued commands.

"After the 11th Chapter arrives, it will join forces with other warships in the star system to pursue the Ork warships."

"Upon arrival, the 5th Legion will form a defensive array around the Moon, preventing the 'Space Wolves' from approaching."

The performance of "Space Wolves" in battles such as the Ark Fringe Cluster resurfaced in Nimrod's memory.

Space Wolves are always dedicated to destroying everything and turning everything into ruins.

He didn't want his spoils to be destroyed at such a high cost.

Arsena Dunn immediately relayed the Primarch's orders after listening to the report from the Auger Matrix Master.

"Sir, the fleet has scanned the entire Moon and discovered forty-one Warp Gate on Moon surface."

As he spoke, he manipulated the Control Staff, and the holographic image of the Wheel of Fire System shrank and moved to a corner, occupying only one-eighth of the area.

The center of the holographic image transformed into a scan of the Attack Moon.

At the same time, the surrounding video screens also switched to displaying scan data.

The Primarch gene surveyed all the video screens, and a torrent of data flooded into his brain.

A few seconds later, the Gene Primarch extended its finger and circled the Warp Gate with the highest energy reading.

"This Warp Gate," the Primarch quickly selected four more Warp Gate nearby, "And these are my and the Honor Guard's targets."

"The Second and 7th Legion are responsible for the other Warp Gate."

The Primarch's Attendants immediately relayed the Primarch's orders to the two lords.

Nimrod glanced at the holographic image, Gloriana-class Battleship savagely rammed through the Orks warship blocking its path.

The Void Shield feedback report shows warning runes flashing continuously between green and yellow.

The Primarch then stood up and spoke to the female captain.

"Diana, the space war is in your hands."

"Yes, sir."

Nimrod strode onto the boarding deck, where black Drop Pod were neatly arranged on the launch pad, and the Honor Guard had already assembled.

The lost members of the Shadow of Order were replaced by personnel from the Second and 7th Legion.

Besides Arenis' Wilshire squad, there are now 583 people.

Members of the Honor Guard who experienced the Battle of Arenis all wore medals forged by Tech Sergeant on their chests.

The medal features a black arrow piercing a yellow heart.

The Primarch stepped into the custom-made Drop Pod, while members of the Honor Guard and the assault teams of the Second and Seventh Chapter also entered the vehicle at the same moment.

After the Shadow of Order took their positions, the armored, petal-like hatch slowly closed, revealing the Drop Pod to resemble a mature seed pod.

The alarm sounded, and the launch pad's power coils began charging.

Arsena Dunn, stepping onto the Stormbird deck, heard a piercing, sharp whistling sound and smelled the ozone permeating the air.

The power coil was fully charged, and the sudden and drastic change in air pressure indicated the dissipation of the force field across the entire deck.

The Machine Spirit within the Drop Pod yearns to engage in battle, its pent-up energy emitting a sharp howl.

The Drop Pod shot out like a bullet, and the resulting shockwave made the boarding deck tremble.

The Drop Pod, enveloped in teardrop-shaped, azure flames, crashed into the Moon one after another.

The Orks on the surface of the Attack Moon roared with excitement as they saw the blinding light plummeting from the sky.

An Ork, taller, bigger, and stronger than the other Ork, shouted.

"Hey guys, something's falling from the sky again."

"Come with me quickly, let's grab them all."

Hundreds of Scrap Boyz and Gretchin followed their leader, running towards the direction where the light had fallen, ready to scramble for the parts.

Rumble!

The Drop Pod crashed onto the Attack Moon, the shockwave sending the greedy Orks flying.

The hatch opened, and the black-armored Warrior stepped out.

Nimrod stepped out of the Drop Pod, raised his left arm, and fired a bomb at the Ork.

He also looked around to identify the area with the highest energy density fluctuations.

The Primarch said to the Honor Guard member beside him, "Five o'clock, 2.7 kilometers away."

"Your clothes are nice, and the sword in your hand is nice too. I've got my eye on it."

The leader, dressed in yellow and green stripes, greedily eyed Nimrod's armor, which was even more ornate than the boss's, and charged straight at him.

Nimrod faced the leader, and with a swing of his Sword of Vaul, the steel club was sliced through like tofu.

The Ork leader's head flew to the ground.
